I have been working on writing Qt Linux application on my Chromebook and deploying it on a ubuntu machine. By far all qt widget works fine except one: Qt Data Visualization.
I can compile the example code with the correct setting of Qt5_DIR. However, when I run the app, the image part is just a black screen. Nevertheless, if I just copy-paste it to a ubuntu machine, it displays properly.
I have installed opencv on my chromebook and wrote some demo programs. I wonder is it just chromebook's problem? Or I am missing something.
The code I ran was the example code from Qt
main.cpp

CodePudding user response:
According to https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qtdatavisualization-known-issues.html
Some platforms like Android and WinRT cannot handle multiple native windows properly, so only the Qt Quick 2 graphs are available in practice for those platforms.
It is probably the case.
p.s. adding qputenv("QSG_RHI_BACKEND", "opengl");
did not improve the condition in this case.
